Confidentiality
Each Party (as “Receiving Party”) agrees that all code, inventions, know-how, business, personal data, technical and financial information it obtains from the disclosing party (“Disclosing Party”) constitute the confidential property of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”), provided that it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential or proprietary due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. Customer Data, pricing information, FlexOS Technology, Beta Releases (including the existence of), performance information relating to the Services, Introductory Service or Beta Releases, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed Confidential Information without any marking or further designation. Except as expressly authorized herein, the Receiving Party shall (A) hold in confidence and not disclose any Confidential Information to third parties and (B) not use Confidential Information for any purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under this Agreement.
The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided that such representatives are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective of the Disclosing Party than this Clause 10 and that the Receiving Party remains responsible for compliance by any such representative with the terms of this Clause 10.
The Receiving Party’s confidentiality obligations shall not apply to information that the Receiving Party can document:
was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information;
is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party;
is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or
is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party without use of or reference to such information.
The Receiving Party may make disclosures to the extent required by law or court order, provided the Receiving Party notifies the Disclosing Party in advance and cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment. The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

All amounts owed to FlexOS are non-cancellable and fees paid are non-refundable, except as explicitly otherwise stated in the Agreement.
